Okay, we've been a little bit crazy here at SMP today...we put up, took down, put up, then took down again a wedding that I am sure you guys fell in love with if you had a chance to see. But, not to worry, the full affair will be back up next week, we just needed a few tweaks on the pictures.
But, we have THE most spectacular wedding you've ever seen today so your wedding eye candy addiction will most definitely be fulfilled. Shot by...

Being from Texas, this wedding warms my heart. It's Texas chic to its core...and I am loving every bit of it. The bright infusion of colors, the sweet but totally beautiful details, the DIY spirit paired with a style that can stand all on it's own...this wedding is perfection! And Q Weddings, the photographer behind the day, captured the story flawlessly.

I am not usually a fan of lots of color and yet I heart this wedding so much that I was literally bursting at the seams when I was formatting the pictures. Photographed by Q Weddings, it's ALL charm. With details that would make any bride swoon, each and every corner was total perfection.

Today is all about color. Weddings that bring beautiful hues into their look in a way that is all together chic, stylish and utterly gorgeous. This next wedding, photographed by Q Weddings, is a bit more demure than the last one and yet it's HUGELY charming, unbelievably stylish and wonderfully approachable. In a word....LOVE.

Today's first featured wedding, shot by the hugely talented Michael Falco for Christian Oth, is all about color and culture. Bringing two different backgrounds and histories together into an incredible celebration of style. Both the bride and the groom are no strangers to design, with their branding company MonkeyThat helping them to approach the...
There are two reason why I love this wedding so much. The first is that the amazing Michael Falco at Christian Oth Studios photographed the day. Any time I get something from a photographer at Christian Oth Studios, I get really excited...every one of their artists shoot flawlessly, with an emphasis on style, on emotion, on pure and undeniable beauty.
The second reason is that this wedding is an absolute explosion of...

If you are just now joining us, we have had a day of gorgeousness on SMP...starting with this yellow and gray inspired affair. But now, we are on to something a bit more traditional, a bit more understated. Photographed by IN Photography and planned by...
I know that you guys are desperate for some country club inspired weddings and I thought that this one fit the bill. It's pretty, it's elegant and it's got that approachable style that works so well in a clubhouse setting. The couple chose to host the ceremony on the lawn at the Keystone Ranch in Colorado, with the reception following indoors.
The wedding was planned by Little Black Book member...
I am really excited about this next post. The lovely and oh-so-talented Sharon Taylor is graciously sharing one of her Fall inspired wedding favor ideas with us...a project that is actually so fitting for today, where Summer is really coming to an end here in Boston.
And I must admit, I love Fall so much in New England...particularly the apple inspired goodness that happens and the warm, cozy weddings!

Katie Anderson is the photographer behind that RIDICULOUSLY adorable wedding that we featured just the other day...all about the pink. Well this one, is just as fabulous, just as charming, just as everything! Plus, it's inspired by a yellow and gray palette that you know that I love.
The pair took a style that we've featured on SMP before and infused it with their own flair. A little...
It's official. Yellow is my favorite Spring and Summer wedding color. And a palette of gray, white and yellow...well, it's my all time favorite 2009 wedding color trend. I am actually hoping that it surpasses all rules of trendiness and sticks around for a long time. When I spotted this wedding that Katie Anderson photographed, I knew that I had to share...
It's kind of a play on a few other weddings that we've...

Over the next couple of weeks, we are going to be looking to the Style Circle to find a few fabulous, style savvy brides that are building up their Style Circle blog and filling it with content that is interesting, inspiring and most of all...gorgeous. We'll be following their story right here on the front page of SMP so...
Over the last couple of days, we've been using our new Inspiration Board Builder to create the boards that we're featuring here on the front page. I have to say...the tool is SO completely awesome, I can hardly believe that my sweet husband and his amazingly techi friends crafted it just for us. You'll see that if you scroll over the images, the florist and the photographer are both credited so that you know exactly who is responsible for such gorgeousness.
And now for the shameless...
How do you NOT fall head over heels in love with a wedding that is as pretty as this one? Martha Andrews is an incredible florist and not only did she craft some of the loveliest centerpieces around, she also designed the entire style, including the picture perfect peach details. TOO, too pretty.
